Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel



In the midst of the intense battle, Eren had devised a daring plan to take down the relentless GrayScale Fire Wyvern.

Knowing that using Sedating Gaze on the dragonkind would likely fail, he cleverly used the failed attempt to his advantage. By momentarily slowing down the wyvern's reactions, Eren seized the opportunity to climb over its massive back and launch a deadly attack from close range. The beast's compromised responses prevented it from effectively countering Eren's swift assault.

However, the failed spiritual attack had its consequences. Eren endured physical and mental backlash, which hindered his ability to utilize many of his spells and abilities. To compensate for the restrictions imposed by the space-element runes, Eren had to think creatively and adapt his battle strategy.

Switching between multiple spells with varying elemental profiles, though more mana-intensive, became a necessity under these circumstances. He also found himself increasingly reliant on his Hex artifact due to the limitations of the runes.

Eren was still proficient in dealing with regular Rankers, but against formidable opponents, he couldn't unleash his full potential. The dilemma was further complicated by the necessity of keeping the space-element runes always working on his body in a passive mode to protect his alter identity as Leo Longblade under the Lazarus Project.

The opportunity to hunt the wyvern had been on Eren's mind for weeks, planning to explore the treacherous Badlands for the beast's soul. But fate had offered him a unique chance when the Layos army brought their own wyvern to the battlefield. The hunt for a legendary-tier creature was always risky, but the prospect of claiming the beast's soul with the backing and resources of Edinburgh was too enticing to resist.

Eren's preparation for the wyvern hunt came in the form of special Trump Cards, specifically crafted to take down the formidable creature. Among them was the RDX potion bomb, not the typical mass-produced variety his guild was accustomed to.

This particular concoction was infused with deadly wyvern poison, ensuring that the explosive damage was coupled with a rapid, deadly poisoning effect that would course through the beast's veins. With precision, Eren embedded the potion bomb deep into the wyvern's neck injury, ensuring its potent effects were unleashed.

Eren's heart raced with anticipation and determination when he started fighting with the wyvern. The odds were stacked against them, but his unwavering resolve and strategic planning would be the key to overcoming the ferocity of the GrayScale Fire Wyvern and claiming victory for both the White Raven Guild and Edinburgh.

Reluctance tugged at Eren's heart as he contemplated using the deadly wyvern poison to take down the beast. The wyvern's body held a plethora of rare ranking resources that would be invaluable for his potion-making and artifact manufacturing endeavors.

By using the poison, he risked compromising the potential resources he could obtain from the creature's corpse. However, confronting the wyvern head-on without a solid plan would be a fatal mistake, and the safety of his team and himself took precedence. Thus, in the end, he made the difficult choice to utilize the peculiar concoction.

In a swift and calculated move, Eren positioned himself below the wyvern's flying shadow right after he primed and detonated the RDX potion bomb laced with the deadly wyvern poison. The blast unleashed a cacophony of sound, mingling with the agonizing wails of the wyvern.

Brilliant light engulfed the creature as the potent fire-element mana erupted, dealing massive damage to the wyvern's formidable scales. The once airborne beast came crashing down, causing a fiery spectacle on the ground below.

Dazed from the backlash of the failed Sedating Gaze attempt, Eren quickly regained his footing and reached for a recovery potion vial, consuming its contents in one swift gulp. He wasted no time in rallying his team.

"Guys!" he called out urgently, knowing other members of this wyvern hunt understood their next move. Without hesitation, Renita unleashed a barrage of attacks on the fallen wyvern, surrounded by a cloud of flames. Altashia and other Rankers surrounding the beast and Eren also launched a volley of attacks on the fallen wyvern.

The fight was far from over, and they needed to be vigilant against any resurgence from the resilient creature.

Roar!

As the menacing wyvern's deafening roar reverberated through the battlefield, Eren and the other Rankers surrounding the beast couldn't help but shiver. The creature flapped its now-tattered wings, scattering the engulfing cloud of flames that had concealed it moments ago, revealing its fearsome countenance to all.

The potion bomb detonation had taken a toll on the wyvern, evident from the grievous injuries it bore. Dark red blood oozed from its wounds, staining the ground beneath in a macabre hue.

Residual flames flickered on its damaged scales, releasing a pungent scent into the air. The beast had suffered severe burn damage, but the most critical wound lay on its neck, where it appeared as if its head and neck might soon part from its torso. Though cauterized by the explosion, a blue hue surrounding the wound indicated the wyvern poison's insidious work.Follow current s on Noᴠelꜰire

Refusing to surrender, the wyvern unleashed another thunderous roar and glared at its opponents with unbridled rage. In a broken human tongue, it spat venomous threats. "You… you fil… thy maggots, you will pa… pay for..."

The beast aimed to unleash a final, devastating attack, gathering mana from its surroundings with its intent-based magic. However, before it could act, Eren abruptly approached, disrupting its deadly plans.

"Just drop dead already, you overhyped lizard."

Eren's bear form manifested before the wyvern, wielding the oversized Labrys with deadly precision. He launched relentless strikes at the dying creature, preventing it from casting an area-of-effect spell that could have spelled doom for everyone nearby.

Even in its dying moments, the wyvern put up a formidable fight against Eren. Were it not for the protection of his Hex Armor, Eren would have been dealt critical damage by the beast's ferocity multiple times over.

The skirmish was brief but intense, pushing Eren to unleash the true potential of his Berserker and Close Combat Expert classes. In the end, the wyvern took its final breaths, and the bear soul attached to the Hex Armor dissipated after Eren's exhaustive use of the armor.
